FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Usually I interview prospective students on Thursday evenings. If the student has already had some piano instruction, I will ask them to play a few songs for me and will ask them some questions to assess where they are in their knowledge of theory. At that point I will talk to the parents about how I plan to proceed with the student's piano lessons in my studio.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied with a private piano teacher for 14 years and have been teaching piano lessons for the last 15 years. I have 10 years of experience in directing choirs and taught Preschool and Elementary Music classes for 4 years. I began playing professionally for church services, weddings, funerals and graduations at the age of 12.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I love music, playing the piano, teaching, and helping other people reach their goals. I feel that being a piano teacher is my calling in life.
